Ok what I am about to tell you has been scoffed at overlooked and sadly I have taken a lot of bad hits for this one but here goes. That is a terrible designed washing machine. The motor is reversed by polarity and they use greased ball bearings mounted in grooved graduated channels to raise and release the brake.Very crappy design. Over time dust dirt grime and non lubrication makes those ball bearings hang up and lock up.The motor clutch is also th motor pully and tends to fail frequently. This washer has got to be one of the worst designs ever.The transmission is little more than a lawn mower quill. I would not send a dime on repairing this machine.

yeah well I guess i got screwed I just bought it 1 month ago it was very very clean so I gave 100.00 for it and its not even worth repairing thanks

And remember the timer and water valve motor and other items all are manufactured south of the border. Viva La revolucion!
